Chapter 194 "Library-2F" (2000 words added!)

The other end of the stone bridge.

Mao Feiyang looked at Mu Daxian who was excited, and asked puzzledly: "What did you do just now?"

Mu Daxian smiled and said, "It's a bit tricky to deal with a body of the teacher's level, but I just had a flash of inspiration and gave it a little work. I hope it will like it."

Mao Feiyang: “?”

"You will understand later." Mu Daxian patted Mao Feiyang on the shoulder, without saying much, and walked towards the exit of the stone bridge.

After witnessing everything, Lin Yi was shocked beyond words.

He knew what Mu Daxian had done!
"Overwrite!"

Mu Daxian used a paintbrush to directly "overwrite" the pseudo-human art teacher's leg into a chicken leg, but the most amazing thing was not this, but that he used the non-intelligent purebred nocturnal species hidden under the stone bridge to temporarily anchor the things he needed to "overwrite"!

It is not surprising that this kind of overwriting can deceive pure-blooded nocturnal species. What is incredible is that Mu Daxian took advantage of the "cognition" of pure-blooded nocturnal species and corrupted the pseudo-human art teacher to a certain extent!

If the fake art teacher had observed for a while longer, he would have been able to see the clues, but he didn't.

This deceptive "overwrite" is completely ineffective against Lin Yi, but it is extremely useful for those purebred nocturnal species who only rely on instinct.

As for what Mu Daxian said about it being a bit tricky to deal with, that's because in order to completely eliminate the fake people, you must use sunlight or something with the same properties as sunlight.

But for art floors that remain in darkness for long periods of time, this is simply unrealistic.

Lin Yi, who was walking on the stone bridge, suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but look around.

Due to the bad weather, Lin Yi's visibility was terribly low, and the castle behind him was only an extremely vague outline. If it were not for the sporadic candlelight, it would be impossible to distinguish it from the darkness.

"If the Art Building is the Teaching Building D... then the stone bridge I'm crossing now should be the covered bridge of Building D..."

"So... the elevator at the observatory in front should be the elevator of Building C?"

Although it is difficult to fully understand the distortion and overlap of layers, if you use the overlapping parts of layers as anchor points little by little, you may be able to find some clues.

These clues may be very incomplete, but just like a puzzle, if you find a piece here and a piece there, once there are enough of them, you may be able to piece together some secrets at some point.

Below the stone bridge is a cliff, and below the cliff is the sea.

If we ignore the increase in spatial distance, they really look more and more alike...

"Wait... who said that extending the distance doesn't count?"

Wouldn't the cobblestone roads on campus be stretched under the anomaly layer?
Since there is lateral stretching, longitudinal stretching may not be undesirable!
Lin Yi looked back at the outline of the Art Building. Although the castle in the Art Building was somewhat different from the castle he had seen in the exposed quality of "My Vision", even the Teaching Building C, after he reconstructed and edited it using "Minecraft", showed an abstract architectural structure.

Maybe the Art Building looks like that in the campus layer. When you reach the Art Building layer, it will be completely unfolded and become this magnificent, desolate and ancient super castle!

"If Maozi arrives at Building C after getting out of the elevator, then my guess is almost correct!" Lin Yi couldn't help but feel some anticipation in his heart.

When we walked out of the stone bridge, we saw a wooden sign nailed to a stone pillar. The words "Welcome to the Art Building!" looked a little weird in the wind and rain. The tetanus iron sheet hanging on the rusty iron chain under the sign also clanged in the wind and rain.

After passing the signpost, the shadow of a dark building slowly emerged from the fog.

This watchtower has stood in the storm for who knows how many years. Its walls are mottled and full of traces of wind and rain erosion. The top floor still has an eternal flame beating in today's storm, and it is a real lighthouse in the fog.

Next to the observation deck, there is an elevator shaft that looks like a subway entrance.

It is said to be like a subway entrance, but there are no stairs extending diagonally downward. This entrance is like a simple roof that only serves to shelter from wind and rain. The elevator to the Art Building is about ten meters inside the entrance.

Mao Feiyang followed Mu Daxian and quickened his pace after leaving the stone bridge, rushing into the entrance of the elevator shaft in the rain.

There are some candlesticks hanging on both sides of the elevator shaft, and the warm light seems to be able to dispel the moisture brought by the rain on the body.

Some art students walked out from the depths of the elevator shaft. When a few of them passed by Mao Feiyang, they exuded some... malice that could not be concealed even after trying extremely hard.

These people immediately caught Lin Yi's attention.

Through observation, Lin Yi found that their performance was very similar to that of the pseudo-humans, and it went without saying that they were pseudo-human art students.

"It's obvious that art students like Maki Daxian and the fake people don't get along at all, and it seems that the fake art teacher may not be able to beat Maki Daxian. Why don't the art teachers and art students kill the fake people directly on the art building level, but let them go to the campus level to harm the experience students?"

Lin Yi was very puzzled.

But Mao Feiyang didn't have so many thoughts at the moment. He just followed Mu Daxian slowly to the elevator entrance.

With the help of dim light, Lin Yi observed the environment inside the elevator shaft.

On the wall of the elevator shaft, there are words that look very abstract. They are neither hieroglyphics nor cuneiform. At first glance, they look like ghost paintings, but if you look closely, you will find that these words do have some similar structures...

Well, this really is a kind of text, but unfortunately I can’t understand it.

Turning his gaze back to the elevator shaft, Lin Yi saw a row of elevator entrances. There were about five elevators illuminated by the candlestick's light. There was a candlestick on the wall between every two elevators. It gave him the feeling of opening and closing doors in Conan's cutscenes, except that the wooden door had to be replaced with an elevator door.

The elevator in front of them had a number: "Moon-IV".

Looking to the left, there are "Moon-III", "Moon-II"...

And looking to the right, there are "Moon-V", "Moon-VI"...

"There are more elevators here... than what you see outside." Mao Feiyang said in surprise.

"The design is indeed ingenious." Mu Daxian nodded, "It is said that the school put a lot of effort into building public facilities."

"When you come in and take the elevator, just take the one that's closest to you."

Mu Daxian said as he pressed the button of the "Moon-IV" elevator.

What’s interesting is that there is only one “↓” button in front of each elevator, which reminds Lin Yi of the “↑” button covered by a red glass cover in the dormitory building’s elevator. They really look like a perfect match.

Not long after, there was a "ding" sound from behind the door, and then the elevator door opened with a "clang".

There was no one behind the door, just an empty elevator.

"The elevator here is one-way, so there's no need to worry about someone coming out." Mu Daxian took Mao Feiyang into the elevator.

When Mao Feiyang entered the elevator, Lin Yi immediately got a view of the interior of the elevator.

He knew that time was running out, so he took the time to observe.

The interior of the elevator in the Art Building is an environment that is completely different from the style of the Art Building. Compared with the cult, weird, abstract and dark style of the "world" where the Art Building is located, the interior of the elevator in the Art Building can be described as extremely simple.

This kind of elevator reminded Mao Feiyang of a sentence in the Art Building Rules: "In order to create an artistic atmosphere, our school has tried a cutting-edge technology that can create a virtual environment."

Lin Yi discovered that the interior of the elevator in the Art Building was generally the same as that of the elevators in the dormitory building and the teaching building. The only difference was the elevator's floor panel.

On the floor panel of the dormitory building elevator, in addition to the regular door opening and closing button, there is only one "↓" button.

After Mu Daxian entered, he pressed the button. There were a few art students behind him who were planning to enter the elevator, but when they saw Mu Daxian and Mao Feiyang, they consciously made way.

A few seconds after the elevator door closed, Lin Yi felt the entire elevator begin to sink slightly, followed by a "clang" sound. He didn't know if it switched to another track...

Lin Yi had been carefully feeling the changes in the elevator, but apart from some bumps, he felt nothing.

As the elevator moved, he could hear the violent sound of the wind, which was similar to the sound when the elevator in the dormitory building was running, but other than that he didn't feel much, and even... he didn't feel much of a falling sensation.

Mu Daxian calculated the time silently, then narrowed his eyes and said, "Move closer to the corner. Someone is getting on the elevator."

"?"

Mao Feiyang was stunned for a moment, but still shrank into the corner consciously.

Sure enough, after about 10 seconds, Lin Yi felt the elevator brake and slow down.

"Ding!"

The elevator made a crisp sound, and a string of text popped up on the floor display.

Lin Yi looked over subconsciously, but when he saw the floor panel, his "body" seemed to be frozen in place, and all the hairs on his body stood up.

「Library-2F」

"Library...?!" Lin Yi took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on the words "Library - 2F", then his gaze moved down to the elevator door.

"Did the Russian student commemorative coins get lost in the library?"

At that moment, many thoughts emerged in his mind. He concentrated his attention and tried to observe this mysterious library that was clearly recorded on the map but could not be observed the moment the elevator door opened.

"Bang-clang!" The elevator door slowly opened, and an indescribable warm breath poured into the elevator as the elevator door opened.

However, Lin Yi's plan to observe the library was immediately shattered. When the elevator door opened, a person appeared at the elevator entrance with his face almost touching the elevator door.

This person was wearing a loose dark green coat, with messy hair hanging down and a pale and expressionless face. If you didn't know him, you would think he was a student who skipped classes from Slytherin.

The moment the elevator opened, his somewhat dull gaze fell directly on Mao Feiyang like an automatic lock. At that moment, his eyes, which had originally been dull, suddenly burst into a creepy gleam.

"Classmate, you come from the Art Building, where are you going?" A smile began to appear on his face little by little, but every muscle seemed to have its own ideas and moved at will. Mao Feiyang felt a chill on his back and many horror scenes seen in movies emerged in his mind.

Mu Daxian quietly reached out and pressed the door closing button.

“Bang—clang!”

The elevator door closed quickly, which not only stunned the classmate, but also made Lin Yi unable to react in time.

Lin Yi took advantage of the last moment to take a look at the library through the gap between this classmate.

Unfortunately, his field of vision was affected by Mao Feiyang's field of vision. Even if he tried hard to observe, he could only see a slightly blurry environment.

From his angle, he could only see a wall decorated with carved brown-yellow wooden boards, with a framed painting hanging on the wall.

The vision passed by so quickly that Lin Yi couldn't even see the content of the painting. He just felt that it was like an oil painting or some kind of impressionist work. The sloppy lines and rough brushwork outlined a corner of a war. Of course, it is also possible that it was not a war, but some kind of ritual.

At this time, the classmate noticed that in addition to Mao Feiyang, there was another person in the elevator whom he had not "sense" at all - Mu Daxian.

Mu Daxian moved slightly, moved out from the corner of the elevator, and stood between Mao Feiyang and the classmate.

The student didn't react at first, until he saw the drawing board on Mu Daxian's back...

He turned around and tried to run, but bumped into the elevator door.

He turned around and leaned his back against the elevator door, trembling, trying to retreat, but there was no way to escape behind him.

Mu Daxian had no intention of taking action, but just clasped his hands across his chest and looked at him with a smile.

The atmosphere in the elevator gradually became gloomy, and Lin Yi gradually realized that Mu Daxian's existence seemed to make the pseudo-human type of existence particularly fearful, but for a moment he could not tell whether the source of this fear was Mu Daxian himself, or... the drawing board on Mu Daxian's back.

That drawing board is indeed very sophisticated. Like Fei Gong in Qin's Moon, it is usually just an ordinary drawing tool, but after some assembly techniques, it will become an extremely lethal weapon, which looks even more efficient than a sports student's baseball bat.

Soon, the elevator began to slow down again, and when it stopped, a crisp "ding" sound was heard.

Lin Yi quickly looked at the floor display with great anticipation, silently repeating "Building C", "Building C", "Building C" in his mind...

Soon a line of words popped out:

「Teaching Building-A-1F」

"Ah?" Lin Yi was stunned. "It's not Teaching Building C, but the first floor of Teaching Building A?"

This scene simply and directly destroyed the guess that Lin Yi had just put forward, causing him to open his mouth but not knowing what to say.

He looked at the words "Teaching Building - A-1F" with some complicated feelings, and a sense of loss rose in his heart. At the same time, he felt that he was increasingly unable to see through the secrets of Teaching Building D.

After guessing for so long, isn't there even a consolation prize?
This is too hurtful!

The only valuable clue he got from this elevator trip was that [on the way from the Art Building elevator to the Teaching Building, you will pass by the library].

"But... after pressing '↓' at the Art Building, I went to the library first and then to the Teaching Building. Could it be that... the library is located on the 4th to 8th floors of the Teaching Building?"

When the layer is distorted, the 4th to 8th floors of the teaching building may not be distorted to the lamppost of "Library-102"!

The stairs in the teaching building can even lead to the dormitories, so it is not unacceptable that the 4th to 8th floors of the teaching building are a little soft!
In the split second that Lin Yi was thinking, the student who was leaning against the elevator door immediately switched from a back-to-back attack to a front-to-front attack, trying to rush out of the elevator through the gap in the door.

Mu Daxian looked at his fleeing figure coldly, but had no intention of taking action. Instead, he waited until he ran far away before walking out of the elevator with Mao Feiyang.

"That guy just now...was he a fake art student?" Mao Feiyang asked with lingering fear.

"That's right." Mu Daxian replied, "He was probably planning to go to the cafeteria for dinner, but he didn't expect to run into me."

"They seem afraid of you?"

"I've done something wrong, so of course I'm afraid of being criticized by others. Come on, I'll take you to the cafeteria."

"Uh... ok."

……

After Mu Daxian finished speaking, he took Mao Feiyang out of Building A of the teaching building and walked up the stairs to the cobblestone road. However, he only took a few steps before he took Mao Feiyang out of the cobblestone road and into the mountain path.

Mao Feiyang didn't understand and just followed silently, but Lin Yi's eyelids jumped suddenly.

Mu Daxian doesn't even walk on the cobblestone road? !
He soon discovered that Mu Daxian was walking back and forth on a mountain path without cobblestones, pushing aside some scattered branches, and then came to a lamppost.

The lamppost was located in a pile of overgrown bushes. Mu Daxian squatted down and pushed aside the dead branches and leaves that covered the base of the lamppost. Then he stood up and gently stroked the lamppost with a look of loneliness in his eyes.

Then he took out a paintbrush from his cloth bag and slowly began to paint on the lamppost.

Lin Yi looked at it with a puzzled look, and saw that the word "filial piety" had already appeared under Mu Daxian's pen. His heart trembled suddenly, as if he had guessed something. Sure enough, when Mu Daxian finished writing, a word "teaching" that seemed to be written in pure white paint appeared on the lamppost!
"Teaching building?!"

"Mu Daxian is writing numbers on the lamp posts?!"

“Is this a ‘prank’ or are they really numbering the street lights?”

Lin Yi watched with wide eyes. After Mu Daxian finished writing, the big words "Teaching Building-032" suddenly appeared on the lamppost.

Lin Yi had never paid attention to the fonts of the numbers on the lampposts before. Now, he couldn't help but find that Mu Daxian's font was almost the same as the white painted fonts on the lampposts that he usually noticed!
After finishing writing, Mu Daxian put away his paintbrush and continued walking forward with Mao Feiyang.

They walked on the mountain path next to the cobblestone road. The path was a bit rugged and difficult to walk on, and some areas even overlapped with the green forest belt. But even so, Mu Daxian had no intention of walking on the cobblestone road.

As he walked along, Mu Daxian rewrote the numbers on three lamp posts, namely "Teaching Building-032", "Teaching Building-041" and "Teaching Building-090", but there were more than just these lamp posts he passed by.

Finally, Mao Feiyang couldn't help asking, "Are you writing numbers on the lamp posts?"

"That's right." Mu Daxian said calmly, "I'm here now, so I just did it."

"But why don't you number some of the lamp posts?" Mao Feiyang asked.

Mu Daxian smiled and said, "In your opinion, I am writing numbers on them, but in fact, I am charging them."

"what?"

Mu Daxian smiled and said, "You can understand that those lamp posts are out of power, so they need to be replenished with electricity. Otherwise, when it's 18:00, all the other lamps will be on, but they won't be able to light up."

"As for the ones I didn't number, it's because they are different from the street lights you see...those are fake."

"Fake people make fake street lamp poles to deceive others. Ordinary people cannot distinguish between real and fake street lamp poles and are easily deceived after being contaminated. Most people can only distinguish them by the flickering and numbering of the street lamps."

"But we can."

"why?"

"Because this thing was originally built by the first batch of art students. If you are able, try to maintain the normal existence of the street lamp numbers on campus... especially during this period."

"'This time'?"

"The Night Watchmen rang the bell of Doomsday, not only warning the fake people, but also warning us." Mu Daxian glanced at Mao Feiyang, "No one on campus can be immune to Doomsday. We need to work together to overcome the difficulties."

Mu Daxian added: "Adding numbers is not within the scope of an art student's duties. I can only say that I will add them when I see them."

"Oh..." Mao Feiyang didn't ask any further questions because he had no way to ask any further questions.

Lin Yi captured a lot of information from it.

Street lamps can be recharged by replenishing their numbers, so the fading of street lamp numbers can indeed be considered a loss of the extraordinary characteristics of the street lamps.

What shocked Lin Yi the most was that the lamp posts on campus were actually built by art students!
But this is understandable, because "participating in the construction" and "all built by art students" are two different things, and street lights need to be distorted after the layer works, so it is reasonable for art students to participate in the construction.

What is really worth exploring is “who” is involved in the process of building street lights.

Because we know how many "forces" are involved in the process of building the campus, we also know how many "forces" belong to the "school" and the "company."

Suddenly, Mao Feiyang screamed and almost fell to the ground.
